Practical Uses for “Additional Instructions” in Listing Setup of ShowingTime for the MLS Software – By Julie Fisher, Customer Care Manager



Within ShowingTime for the MLS, listing agents have the option to add Additional Instructions on their listings. This way, whenever an agent schedules a showing for that property the showing agent will immediately see the showing instructions. Of course, the listing agent can enter details in the Agent Only remarks of the listing as well. But, ShowingTime provides a communication field that could serve as an additional place to make showing agents aware of important information before they show a property. Below are just a few real-world examples of items that come up often and can be communicated within the Showing Instructions box:

  • A comment that back-up offers are only being accepted at this time;
  • The code to enter the gate for a gated community;
  • Please remove shoes; and
  • Instructions on handling the pets (i.e. don’t let the cat out, beware of dog).



We’re sure you have even more examples! Just remember, this field in ShowingTime for the MLS is available for you to use to convey important details regarding showings.
